Marie-Line Gagné

Marie-Line Gagné is an artist fueled by boundless creativity and a love for the whimsical wonders of nature. Since 2017, she's been carving her path, quite literally, in ice, snow, wood, and sand, transforming dirty logs, frozen landscapes, and sandy beach shores into vibrant masterpieces that capture the public imagination.  She had been seen surfing her professional waves not only in national and international competitions but also on TV reality shows with her funky participation in Race Against the Tide season 3. With every stroke of her chisel and every grain of sand, she continues to spread joy and wonder with her ephemeral art, proving that sometimes, the best way to leave your mark on the world is to sculpt it with a smile.
